A Question of Scale?

The challenge of expanding the impact of non-governmental organisations’ HIV/AIDS efforts in developing countries

A Question of Scale? A Question of Scale? (English) 1.43Mb
The HIV/AIDS pandemic is growing so rapidly that the organisations that are responding it are unable to operate at sufficient scale or with enough impact to stem its progress. As a result, NGOs around the world are working to scale up their HIV/AIDS prevention, care and support programmes in developing countries.

This publication draws on a draft that was written to inform debate at an international seminar held in Windsor, UK, in September 2000 on scaling up NGO HIV/AIDS programmes. Twelve NGOs from around the world attended the seminar and presented their own experiences of scaling up. The report addresses issues such as whether there is a trade-off between expansion and quality, proposes a typology of scaling up in relation to HIV/AIDS, and discusses the risks entailed and special challenges. It incorporates case studies presented at the seminar.
